The MBIE Regulatory Impact Statement said that the Act was an endeavour to respond to New Zealand’s “significant housing affordability problem”.1 [2] The passing of HASHAA had been preceded by a report from the New Zealand Productivity Commission on housing affordability.2 The Commission had identified both the Resource Management Act 1991 and local authorities’ consenting processes as contributing to the perceived housing shortage. 1 MBIE Regulatory Impact Statement: Creating Special Housing Areas (15 April 2013) at [8]. 2 New Zealand Productivity Commission “Housing Affordability” (March 2012). [3] The purpose of HASHAA is stated to be: “… to enhance housing affordability by facilitating an increase in land and housing supply in certain regions or districts …”.3 [4] HASHAA does not apply to all of New Zealand but only to the regions and districts listed in Schedule 1. The district administered by Wellington City Council is listed in Schedule 1 as being an area with significant housing supply and affordability issues. [5] In order for a development to be governed by HASHAA, it must fall within certain parameters: (i) The Minister responsible for the administration of HASHAA and the territorial authority listed in Schedule 1 must enter into a “housing accord” which sets out agreed targets for residential developments. (ii) The territorial authority then recommends to the Minister that an area be established as a special housing area. (iii) If the Minister is satisfied that adequate infrastructure to service qualifying developments in the proposed special housing area either exists or is likely to exist, the Minister may recommend that an area be designated as a special housing area (“SHA”). (iv) If a housing accord is terminated or the parties are not able to conclude a housing accord, the Minister may, of his or her own initiative, recommend that an area be designated an SHA. (v) If the Minister so recommends, the Governor-General may, by Order in Council, declare an area to be an SHA for the purposes of HASHAA. 3 Housing Accords and Special Housing Areas 2013, s 4. [6] The Minister and Wellington City Council (WCC) signed a housing accord on 24 June 2014. The intention of that accord was to increase housing supply and improve affordability by providing an environment that facilitated development. Approval of an SHA [7] Subsequent to the establishment of the accord, the Minister approved a number of SHAs within the territory of WCC, including the subject site of these proceedings at Shelly Bay. [8] Once an SHA has been established, a person can apply for a resource consent under HASHAA in relation to any “qualifying development”. [9] Section 14 of HASHAA defines “qualifying development” as one that will be “predominantly residential” and one in which dwellings and other buildings will not be higher than six-storeys or a maximum of 27 metres. Where there is to be a prescribed minimum number of dwellings or prescribed percentage of affordable dwellings, a “qualifying development” must comply with these requirements. The prescribed minimum number of dwellings to be built in the Shelly Bay SHA is 20 but there is no prescribed minimum number of affordable dwellings.4 [10] Once land is designated as an SHA under Part I of HASHAA, then the provisions of Part II apply. Part II has significant Resource Management Act (RMA) implications. As the Court said in Ayrburn Farm Developments Ltd v Queenstown Lakes District Council:5 It sets up a permissive resource consenting regime which is designed to facilitate an increase in residential land and housing supply by making it easier for developers and owners of SHA land to obtain resource consents for certain qualifying housing developments. [11] Part II of HASHAA provides that an application in relation to an SHA is dealt with very differently to an application under the RMA. One of the most striking 4 Criticism of the proposal on the basis that it has no or insufficient provision for affordable housing is therefore misplaced. 5 Ayrburn Farm Developments Ltd v Queenstown Lakes District Council [2016] NZHC 693 at [16]. differences relates to the circumstances in which such an application is to be notified and whether or not a hearing is to be held. [12] The Act provides:6 An authorised agency must not notify, or hold a hearing in relation to, an application for a resource consent made under section 25, except as provided in subsections (3) to (5). [13] Subsections (3) to (5) refer to owners of land adjacent to the land subject to the application, local authorities in whose district the land falls, infrastructure providers who have assets on, under or over the land and any requiring authority in relation to a designation. This is fundamentally different to the notification regime under the RMA. The same applies in relation to the positive instruction in s 29(1) not to hold a hearing except as provided in subs (3) to (5). [14] Section 22 of HASHAA specifically provides that the RMA 1991 does not apply to an application, request, decision or any other matter under Part II of the Act unless HASHAA expressly applies the provisions of the RMA. The site [15] Shelly Bay is located on the western side of the Miramar Peninsula and is about mid-way between Miramar Avenue to the south and Point Halswell, the northern tip of the Miramar Peninsula. It contains the largest area of flat land between those two points. The site is about 8 kilometres from Wellington CBD. [16] Human activity on the Miramar Peninsula goes back to the time of Kupe and various iwi have occupied the area over the past 600 or so years. The Māori name for the peninsula is Te Motu Kairangi reflecting the fact that, at the time of initial Māori occupation, it was an island rather than the peninsula it is today. [17] Various iwi have come and gone over the years including Ngāti Tara, Ngāti Ira, and Ngāti Kahungunu. Since their invasion in the 1830s, Taranaki Whānui (Ngāti Tama, Ngāti Mutunga and Te Āti Awa) have held mana whenua status. 6 HASHAA s 29(1). [18] European activity at Shelly Bay has been dominated by various military activities. It was the site of a naval base from 1885 and the oldest extant building is the Submarine Mining Depot Barracks (submarine mining refers to the laying of underwater mines to protect the entrance to Wellington Harbour) from 1887. [19] Much of the flat land at Shelly Bay was reclaimed during World War II and the wharf structures date from that period. Structures such as Shed 8 and the Shipwrights Buildings also date from this period. [20] Following World War II, Shelly Bay was the site of an air force base until 1995 when it was declared surplus to military requirements. [21] It is thought that some parts of the site may be potentially contaminated by things such as explosives, heavy metals and hydrocarbons as a legacy of its military use, although little actual evidence about the extent or nature of any contamination appears to exist. [22] Since 2005, WCC has owned a 1.6 hectare irregular shaped parcel of land largely along the waterfront. It is zoned Business 1 in the operative District Plan. [23] Since 2010, the Port Nicholson Block Settlement Trust (“PNBST”), which is the entity representing Taranaki Whānui, has owned two separate parcels of land at Shelly Bay totalling 5.0445 hectares. This land was acquired by PNBST pursuant to its Treaty of Waitangi Settlement with the Crown. The relatively flat land within these parcels is zoned Business 1 and the balance which rises steeply up behind Shelly Bay is zoned Open Plan B. [24] The wharf structures are owned by PNBST and held by way of a coastal permit which expires in 2019. The coastal permit is renewable but requires the works situated in the coastal marine area to be kept in a good state of repair.

  • TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA HERITAGE TRAIL MAIN FEATURES of the TRAIL: This Trail Will Take About Four Hours to Drive and View at an Easy TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA Pace
    WELLINGTON’S TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA HERITAGE TRAIL MAIN FEATURES OF THE TRAIL: This trail will take about four hours to drive and view at an easy TE ARA O NGA TUPUNA pace. Vantage points are mostly accessible by wheelchair but there are steps at some sites such as Rangitatau and Uruhau pa. A Pou (carved post), a rock or an information panel mark various sites on the trail. These sites have been identified with a symbol. While the trail participants will appreciate that many of the traditional sites occupied by Maori in the past have either been built over or destroyed, but they still have a strong spiritual presence. There are several more modern Maori buildings such as Pipitea Marae and Tapu Te Ranga Marae, to give trail participants a selection of Maori sites through different periods of history. ABOUT THE TRAIL: The trail starts at the Pipitea Marae in Thorndon Quay, opposite the Railway Station, and finishes at Owhiro Bay on the often wild, southern coast of Wellington. While not all the old pa, kainga, cultivation and burial sites of Wellington have been included in this trail, those that are have been selected for their accessibility to the public, and their viewing interest. Rock Pou Information panel Alexander Turnbull Library The Wellington City Council is grateful for the significant contribution made by the original heritage Trails comittee to the development of this trail — Oroya Day, Sallie Hill, Ken Scadden and Con Flinkenberg. Historical research: Matene Love, Miria Pomare, Roger Whelan Author: Matene Love This trail was developed as a joint project between Wellingtion City Council, the Wellington Tenths Trust and Ngati Toa.

  • SHELLY BAY Councillor Question and Answers - 2 Funding
    SHELLY BAY Councillor question and answers - 2 Funding 1. Has the Council put aside funding in the Long-term Plan (LTP) for the Shelly Bay development which, if we didn't go forward could be released for other priorities? Yes - however, this is noting the significant costs that would be required of Council to repair and/or demolish the buildings and seawalls as outlined in the Council paper. 2. Infrastructure costs: Can the rate payer be assured that we will be paying maximum $10m on infrastructure costs? Why/why not? Yes - it is a term of the Key Commercial Terms (KCTs) and will become a contractual requirement of any development agreement. 3. Who would pay for the road infrastructure upkeep? Is that key infrastructure? The Council is the owner of the road and is responsible for its repair and maintenance, as is the standard practice for all Council roads. 4. If we go ahead, assuming this investment of $10 million be part of the next Long-term Plan (LTP)? And we will need to consider along with other costs? The $10m funding cap has been provided for in the 2018 – 2028 LTP. Any further funding will be at Councillors discretion, following engagement on any roading upgrade beyond what is required under the developments resource consent. 5. One of the outcomes is – “Unlocking the potential value of council land” – what does this mean? The Council would receive market value for the land which is sold or leased. 6. What does Wellington stand to gain in rates? And when is this estimated to commence? The 2017 paper estimated the development would contribute an additional $2m per annum, once the development is complete.

  • Appendix 13 Shelly Bay Cultural Impact Statement
    CULTURAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT WHĀTAITAI, MARUKAIKURU, SHELLY BAY Taikuru Prepared by Kura Moeahu, Peter Adds and Lee Rauhina-August on behalf of Taranaki Whānui Ki Te Upoko o Te Ika and The Port Nicholson Block Settlement Trust, September 2016 STATUS: FINAL 1 Executive Summary This is a Cultural Impact Assessment Report for Shelly Bay/Marukaikuru commissioned by the Wellington Company Limited. It assesses the Māori cultural values of Marukaikuru Bay from the perspective of the tangata whenua, namely the iwi of Taranaki Whānui represented by the PNBST. The main findings of this cultural impact assessment are: • Marukaikuru Bay has high cultural significance to the iwi of Taranaki whanui • Taranaki Whānui people actually lived in the Bay until 1835 • We have found no evidence of other iwi connections to Marukaikuru Bay • Taranaki Whānui mana whenua status in relation to Marukaikuru and the Wellington Harbour is strongly supported in the literature, including the Waitangi Tribunal report (2003) • The purchase of Shelly Bay by PNBST from the Crown was a highly significant Treaty settlement transaction specifically for the purpose of future development • Any development of Marukaikuru must adequately take account of and reflect Taranaki Whānui cultural links, history and tangata whenua status in Wellington. • Taranaki Whānui have kaitiakitanga (guardianship) responsibilities to ensure the protection of the natural, historical and cultural dimensions of Marukaikuru. • The resource consent application submitted by the Wellington Company Limited is supported by the Port Nicholson Block Settlement Trust. 2 WHĀTAITAI, MARUKAIKURU, SHELLY BAY Taikuru Kapakapa kau ana te manu muramura ki te tai whakarunga Māwewe tonu ana te motu whāriki o te tai whakararo Makuru tini e hua ki whakatupua-nuku Matuatua rahi e hua ki whakatupua-ruheruhe Pukahu mano e hua ki whakatupua-rangi Inā te tai hekenga ki runga o Tai Kuru e..
